A considerable amount of money was recently spent creating the existing bike lanes on University Avenue, Bloor St. etc. Getting rid of them is a complete waste of money and time and will create further gridlock while this work is being done. Instead, the traffic light system in Toronto needs to be upgraded to 'smart' lights that can be controlled in real time or programmed based on traffic patterns. Such systems exist or are being implemented in other cities such as London, England and there is no reason we can't do it in Toronto where it should be easier since Toronto streets are on a grid system for the most part. This will improve traffic flow in the downtown core considerably.
